Welcome back to Silver Island

We are back on Silver Island and I couldn't be happier, MAYBE WE WILL is Abby de Messiéres and Aiden Aldridge's story. You may remember Aiden from his sister Remi's book if you've read THIS IS LOVE, no worries if you haven't every book Melissa Foster writes can be read as a standalone, I loved him and was so excited that he was finally getting his HEA.

Aiden is a workaholic, he has spent most of his adult life raising his younger sister after their parents died in an accident and now that she's an adult he has thrown himself into working non-stop. So much so his sister has made him take a much needed vacation and has given him a to do list of fun things so he will not be tempted to work while he is supposed to be relaxing.

Abby had lived on the island until she left for culinary school, but, now her mother has passed away so she and her sister are back to figure out what to do with everything. There are a couple of surprises left behind by her mother and one of them is life changing....a half sister they knew nothing about!

The Meet-Cute with Aiden and Abby was just that - cute and funny! I loved the chemistry they had and the way they felt so comfortable around one another pretty quickly. This was not an insta-love story but there definitely was insta-lust. 😉

I listened to the audiobook version of this book and loved it. Aiden Snow and Jennifer Mack did a wonderful job with bringing this story to life. If you listen to audiobook's I would recommend grabbing this one, your ears and heart will thank you for it.

This is a perfect read for anyone that enjoys Steamy Contemporary Romances with a bit of an age gap (ten years). You may need a few tissues but it's not a tearjerker, I would recommend a tall glass of ice water though because you will need it to cool off every now and then.

Happy Reading!!!

Maybe We Will

"I fell in love with you like night takes over day - soaking up every little thing you did and said, until you were all I saw, all I wanted. Until you were so much a part of me, I no longer knew how to be me without you."
⁣
Maybe We Will is an emotional ride about healing from past heartache and moving forward and going after buried dreams. A story that will give you all the good feels and give you island fever by the end of the story.
⁣
Aiden is a workaholic who has been forced by his sister to take a much-needed vacation so she sends him to Silver Island and creates a "Let Loose List" for him to complete on his month-long vacation. While enjoying his morning coffee and newspaper, a beautiful woman comes running into his life, literally, and he is taken by her. When he finds out she is the part-owner of The Bistro and her dreams for the business, he tells her to turn down the investor who wants to purchase the business, which is him, and he makes it his mission to help her bring her dream to life. Island life has changed Aiden and the way he views things that are important.
⁣
Abby has returned to Silver Island with her sister to take care of their mother's estate to find out that they have a half-sister that they never knew about. Abby goes for a run to see The Bistro, their family's restaurant. When it comes into view she realizes that she wants to bring back the magic that it once was. When she comes around the corner of The Bistro she runs into a man enjoying his coffee and newspaper on the patio of the restaurant. She starts talking to him and opens up to him completely and helps him to enjoy his "Let Loose List".
⁣
There were many things that I enjoyed but there were also things that I struggled with. I experienced tears of heartbreak and tears of joy during the story. Aiden and Abby were adorable together. I loved their connection and the way they complimented each other. As an avid reader, I enjoyed the way past characters are connected into the story and new ones are introduced that we are sure to get to know better in the future. I struggled with the length of the story. I felt that it was a little too long and that it seemed to drag along at points. There were a lot of extras that probably could have been omitted and we still would have got the full story. The other struggle was a personal trigger for me.

Trigger Warning: alcoholism

Audio: Aiden was great as usual and did a great job with bringing Aiden and his part of the story to life. In the first book I listened to by Jennifer, I was not sold to her but she changed my view as Abby.

Cute story but heroine is annoying!!

The book was enjoyable but the heroine who has ZERO business experience stubborn refusal to accept help from a person with tons of business knowledge.

Then the major issue the couple needs to overcome feels contrived because it feels like the heroine is really just having a temper tantrum and being unreasonable.

The book is a good listen because Aiden is awesome and Abby is annoying but not unlikeable.

Yummy

I don’t write reviews often. I loved this story! I laughed, I cried, I rolled my eyes a few times, too. This is a new author for me and I can’t wait for more!!

Irritating Heroine

The story was nice enough, and I usually like simple romances and coastal settings. This heroine irritated me beyond the norm, and the narrator’s portrayal of her didn’t help. It was also a little unnerving how over-the-top the hero’s voice was. No one sounds like they are husky and turned on 24/7!

Fabulous Story and Narrators

The male narrator could talk to me every night and I’d be a very happy woman. What a voice! The female narrator has such a a smooth as silk voice as well. The story itself is very steamy — just what a lovely woman wants!

Contemporary Romance

Maybe We Will by Melissa Foster is a contemporary romance that I listened to on audio narrated Aiden Snow and Jennifer Mack. This is the first book in the Silver Harbor series.

I absolutely love Melissa's books! She does an amazing job pulling me into the story and always leaves me with a smile. The relationship between Abby and Aiden was so sweet. I really enjoyed getting both of their points of view throughout the book. It really brought the story to life.

I can't wait to jump into the next book in the series Maybe We Should so I can get Cait and Brant's story.

Aiden and Jennifer did an amazing job on the narration. They both really know how to bring a story to life, and I look forward to listening to more of their work in the future.

I would highly recommend this book if you love romance books. It will give you all the feels!!!

Slow and Sweet

This really is a chick-lit book, with no real peril or action (other than the sex scenes). Still, it was sweet to hear the couple in question find each other and overcome their respective peccadillos. Lots of nice surrounding characters with their own challenges to deal with and it all flows together for a sweet story.

love the story

this was a refreshing look at first love for a man that work hard and never had a chance to faĺl in love its so sweet!! how he falls in for her (story about 3 sister ) 2 sisters go to an ILand cause theor mother dies thats when they find out they have another sister they also have house & Business to sell so they think one of the sister falls in love an the adventure begins !!!
